Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] In the field of machinery, it is difficult to tighten the connecting rod intermediate nut. Since both ends of the connecting rod are often connected to related transmission accessories, in order to set the wrench on the nut, an open-end wrench is usually used for tightening.
[0003] However, in the tightening operation scenario of the connecting rod type intermediate nut with a large torque of more than 1000NM, the open-end wrench is easy to slip when tightening the bolt, especially in the tightening scenario of large torque, there is a certain safety risk of personnel and equipment injury. In order to avoid slipping and ensure the safety of personnel, wrenches such as plum wrenches are often used for operations. However, when using plum wrenches, it is necessary to remove the related equipment at both ends of the connecting rod, and then insert the plum wrench from the axial direction of the connecting rod, and then put it on the nut for operation. This tightening method is not only cumbersome in operation, resulting in a large waste of manpower and construction time, but also requires multiple disassembly and connection of the connecting rod connection accessories, resulting in deviation in the connecting rod connection stroke accuracy, excessive transmission torque of the equipment, impact damage to the equipment, and fatigue damage to the equipment connection keys. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide an open combined drive wrench for a narrow space and a method of using the same. A ferrule for fixing a nut is provided at one end of the wrench body. The combined design of the ferrule means that there is no need to remove the relevant equipment at both ends of the connecting rod. By clamping a semi-ring part on the nut, small torque operations can be performed. When large torque operations are required, multiple arc parts are sequentially connected to the semi-ring parts to form a complete annular structure to fix the nut, and large torque tightening operations can be performed. Multiple arc parts are convenient to engage with the nut when installed sequentially, which is convenient for operators to fix the nut in a narrow space, greatly reducing the safety risks of personal and equipment injuries, while saving manpower and time, and avoiding the risk of deviation in the stroke accuracy of the connecting rod caused by multiple disassembly and assembly of the connecting rod.
